Travelling from Plymouth

Come to Launceston either through Callington or Tavistock along the A388 or A386, (both roads meet just before you get to Launceston.)
Continue on this road and go straight over the roundabout next to the new housing estate on the right with an exit on to the A30. You will go over the A30 pass Tesco on your left. At the double mini- roundabout turn right towards Polson.  Follow the round around and down, straight over a roundabout by another new housing estate, and continue until you see the grounds in front of you.  Turn LEFT away from the grounds (signposted St Leonards) and then first left into the grounds, follow the road around under the bridge for access to the grounds.

Traveling from the East into Devon & Cornwall

Continue along the A30 for approximately 40 miles.
